#1 WITH A BULLET

The unrated version comes to DVD on May 20th

LOS ANGELES – (MAY 15, 2008) – FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE – New York’s most famous mob family is about to make a killing as Salient Media brings the hilarious mob comedy MEET THE MOBSTERS to DVD on May 20th.

MEET THE MOBSTERS is the story of a struggling lounge singer who could never get a break. Johnny's luck changes when he lands a gig at a hot new club. Little does he know that the club
is owned by a former high-profile mob boss, who's now in hiding. The Dean Martin wannabe soon learns his “Greatest Hits” are more than humble tunes. As his popularity rises, Johnny begins to draw a strange correlation between the songs that he is asked to perform, and the morning crime reports in the news.

Starring former Sopranos castmembers John Fiore, Vincent Pastore, Joe Gannascoli, Steven R. Schriripa, Tony Ray Rossi, Richard Portnow, Frank Santorelli, Vincent Curatola, and Dolres Sirianni.


MEET THE MOBSTERS is produced by John Fiore and was written and directed by Larry Blamire.

The DVD includes such special features as interviews, behind-the-scenes footage and deleted scenes. For more information AND TO PURCHASE THE DVD AT A DISCOUNT VISIT www.MEETTHEMOBSTERS.COM

Possibly, the movie industry is testing the waters to see who goes to see a movie with the non-major (ie: Tony, Chris, Carmella) characters of the Sopranos to see if they can make a movie with the idea of not including Tony. I dont think that they would actually do that, but then they could sign Gandolfini up for a lot less than what he would ask for financially if they (and he) thinks that he is less valuable.

I doubt that's their reasoning. Those actors have appeared in like a dozen films together. They're typecasting personified. THE SOPRANOS will remain the high point of all their careers.

I agree. The Sopranos will be the high point of Gandolfini's career as well. Also, a movie without Tony would never be a big hit at the box office. Not saying that it wouldnt be a good movie, just that it wouldnt earn that much dough.

Also, not fer nuttin', but pretty much all these guys (exception: Nancy Marchand) were typecast to get on the show in the first place.

As for a Sopranos movie, if it's done right (my idea of a prequel, set when Johnny Boy and Corrado were running Jersey for Old Man DiMeo and Tony's hanging with Dickie Moltisanti and Jackie Aprile, struggling with whether to go on to Seton Hall or do the Family Thing), most of the roles will be filled with different actors anyway.

Message to Chase: PLEASE don't give us a Sex & The City-style reunion flick; it would be disastrous, all the film critics would come after you, David! Even your staunchest defenders would run for cover... so do us a favor, take this into consideration.
